I think I'm going to consult with Jack Shepard @ T&F News on this situation.

Well put. This may end up with an * given that it WAS a scheduled meet, but ended up as "practice session" more or less.

Thank you for the info. Sounds like it won't be recognized by OHSAA, but it will be on my lists in one form or another.

Here is an updated listing of the Top 30 boys' all-time weight throw. Top 30 performers & performances. Also, the athletes' ranking in the top 30 nationally all-time have been added in the column next to the Ohio all-time rankings.

Great story. Her success doesn't surprise me as I know that soccer conditioning over many years, which she had, provides a tremendous aerobic resevoir to draw from. Kudos to her and the coaches.

Here is an update listing of the Top 30 boys' all-time indoor pole vault. Top 30 performers & performances. Oldest mark is from 1982 from someone I once vaulted against (but just a few feet lower than him :) ).

Question for the community: Did McClure's vault of 17' 3" at his home Twighlight Relays count as a state record? I see only two vaulters listed in the results...both McClure brothers. https://oh.milesplit.com/meets/428336-green-twilight-relays-2021/results/743009/raw I believe there are a...

These examples remind me of years gone by and the IDIOCY that saw on the part of officials that wouldn't know when to come in from the rain. There should be intelligence tests given to them as it is obvious that too many idiots manage to get officiating credentials but don't know a damned thing...

That REEKS. I wouldve blown a gasket. INEXCUSABLE

Crazy situation. Lazy transcription by whomever.

Sectional? They've been called districts for a long time now. Since the early 80s. Me thinks you're showing your age :)

I personally think OHSAA should take after Kentucky on this issue. Allow for 6th grade participation in middle school XC.

These types of stories are exactly why I create my OWN lists and not just rely on what Milesplit, AthleticNet or others create. I use them, but I qualify each and every person on lists that I create. There have been more than a few athletes who are listed, particularly so on AthleticNet, as...

Now, if only the associated weight gain would be as easy to dispose of when I was younger :eek:
